Chapter 218

Kristin found herself anxiously biting her lip, mulling over the card Rhett had given her

Could she splurge on a handbag? He wouldn’t mind, would he?

She stole a glance at the display case, then at the price tag.

Forget it. A handbag for over thirty grand?

Way too terrifying.

“What a loser, the supervisor sneered, catching Kristin’s hesitation and shock. “Everything on display here is just regular stock, and if you can’t afford that, you’ve got no right standing here.”

The supervisor pointed towards a private showroom. See that? Don’t even dream of stepping foot in there in your lifetime.”

Unless you’re dropping a cool million in our store, you don’t get to see what’s inside.

“Don’t look down on people,” Harriet chimed in, indicating that the supervisor was crossing the line.

Im looking down on her? If she can afford this thirty–thousand–dollar bag, I’ll bark like a dog,” the supervisor rolled her eyes. “If you can’t buy it, then scram and stop dragging our store’s reputation through the mud.”

Security came in to clear the area, ushering out the journalists and onlookers.

Fiona’s bodyguard and company representatives arrived, escorting her away.

Once Fiona left, the reporters followed suit, chasing after the story.

“I’m about to finish up here, wait two minutes for me, and I’ll take you out for some good eats,” Harriet patted Kristin’s head sympathetically.

She looked like the type that was easy to bully, no wonder she was picked on wherever she went. Because Kristin just seemed too easy to push around. Even a luxury store supervisor dared to bite at her.

Kristin nodded, waiting in place for Harriet.

“You’re not going anywhere, we have a meeting at noon!” The supervisor deliberately blocked Harriet, determined not to let her off work. “About letting your friend hang out in the store without buying anything, you’re going to need to explain that to the manager.” The supervisor said smugly. “The manager will be here any minute.”

Sure enough, the manager had arrived.

“Harriet, I’ve heard you’ve been leaking client confidentiality, allowing the press to swarm our guests and causing negative publicity?” The manager’s voice was stern and displeased. “As salespeople, no matter if it’s a mistress or a fling, we only care about performance! How are you going to compensate for the damage to the store?”

“It wasn’t Harriet’s doing, the man’s wife is my friend, and I was the one who called her over.” Kristin spoke up angrily; she wasn’t an employee of the store.

The manager, a woman of great poise dressed in high–end custom fashion, looked every bit as expensive as she sounded.
